Iran denies interior minister's statement on enriched uranium stockpile

 Iran on Friday denied a local news agency's report which quoted the interior minister as saying that the Islamic Republic has stored 100 kg of enriched uranium material.


    Iran's Interior Minister Mostafa Pour-Mohammadi "said nothing regarding the extent of enriched uranium, or the number of installed centrifuges in Natanz," the official IRNA news agency quoted an interior ministry statement as saying.


    Local ISNA news agency reported earlier that Pour-Mohammadi, speaking in southwestern Iran late on Thursday, said "more than 100 kg of enriched uranium materials have been delivered to storages."


    But according to the interior ministry statement, Pour-Mohammadi, who took part in a commemoration on the 26th martyrdom anniversary of Dr. Mostafa Chamran, in Dehlaviye, Khuzestan Province, only "referred to Iran's nuclear progress in production of the UF6 gas in a part of his address."


    "Thus, the information published quoting him in those respects are quite falsified," the statement said.


    The Iranian interior ministry also "advised the media, particularly the foreign media working in Iran, to refrain from quoting the Iranian officials through unofficial sites and news agencies."
